Power Source Connection
Power Requirements
This tool is designed to operate on a properly
grounded 120 volt, 60 Hz, single phase alternating
current (AC) power source fused with a 15 amp time
delayed circuit breaker. It is recommended that a
qualified electrician verify the ACTUAL VOLTAGE at
the receptacle into which the tool will be plugged and
confirm that the receptacle is properly grounded. The
use of the proper circuit size can eliminate nuisance
circuit breaker tripping when using your tool.
Improper performance, and/or, damage to the tool
will result if operated on inadequate, or excessive
power.
DO NOT OPERATE THIS TOOL if
the ACTUAL power source
voltage is less than 105 volts AC or greater than
132 volts AC.
Grounding Instructions
In the event of an electrical malfunction or short
circuit, grounding reduces the risk of electric shock.
The motor of this machine is wired for 120 V single
phase operation and is equipped with a 3-conductor
cord and a 3-prong grounding plug to fit a grounded
type receptacle (B, fig 1). Do not remove the 3rd
prong (grounding pin) to make it fit into an old 2-hole
wall socket or extension cord. If an adaptor plug is

used (C, fig 1) it must be attached to the metal screw
of the receptacle.
The use of an adaptor plug is
illegal in some areas, including
Canada. Check your local codes. If you have any
doubts or if the supplied plug does not
correspond to your electrical outlet, consult a
qualified electrician before proceeding.
Connect to power source
Consult a qualified electrician for proper installation
of receptacle at the source of power. This tool must
be grounded while in use to protect the operator from
electrical shock. If you are not sure if your outlet is
properly grounded, have it checked by a qualified
electrician. Make sure the tool is turned OFF when
connecting the power cord to a properly grounded
120 Volts, 60 Hz, single phase, 15 amp power
source.

function properly at an incline of no greater than 15
degrees.
Using the bolts, nuts and washers provided, attach
the two wheels to the wheel mounts at the bottom of
the tank opposite the handle.
Installing the air filter
The air filter should be installed into the top left side
of motor head (looking from the front to the back of
the air compressor like in position 7, fig 2, above).
